Romanian traditional music

The earliest music was played on various pipes with rhythmical accompaniment later added by a cobza. This style can be still found
in Moldavian Carpathian regions of Vrancea and Bucovina and with the Hungarian Csango minority.

The Greek historians have recorded that the Dacians played guitars and priests perform songs with and guitars.

The bagpipe was popular from medieval times, as it was in most European countries, but became rare in recent times before a 20th century
revival. Since its introduction the violin has influenced the music in all regions by becoming the principal melody instrument. Each region has its own
combination of instruments, old and new, and its own unique sound. This continues to develop to the present day with the most recent additions being
electric keyboards and drum sets.
